Council hears update on Point Grama 288-unit multifamily site plan
Summary
Planning staff briefed council on a 32-acre Point Grama parcel rezoned to R4 with an approved site plan for 270–288 multifamily rental units in 15 three-story buildings plus 18 townhomes; a land-disturbance permit is active, clearing has begun and a $192,000 letter of credit guarantees stabilization work.
Planning staff briefed the City Council on the Point Grama parcel and a pending multifamily development expected to add roughly 270–288 rental units.
Miss Williams described the 32-acre site as located between Lafayette Mitchell Road and South Illinois Avenue, with two proposed access points onto Mitchell Road and the Centrifugeway interchange. The property was rezoned to R4 high-density residential in 2023 and the current owner has received site-plan approval; clearing is underway under a land-disturbance permit and the city holds a $192,000 letter of credit to guarantee stabilization or remediation if necessary.
“The proposed development is 270 multifamily units spread across 15 3-story buildings, and it also includes 18 townhomes,” Miss Williams said, reading from the site plan notes. She listed amenities including a pool, fitness center, dog park, a pickleball court and rentable garage buildings.
Miss Smith and others asked about traffic and whether the new 2025 traffic-impact study differed from the earlier analysis. Staff said the 2025 study did not recommend significant changes and in some respects recommended fewer changes. Staff said internal-circulation issues and the intersection at the new access and Wolf Creek Way/Centrifuge Way were discussed, and recommended stop-sign controls rather than a four-way stop in one cited location.
Council members asked about building height and elevators; staff confirmed the buildings are three stories and would not include elevators. After questions on neighborhood impacts and access the council moved to the next agenda item.
No formal action was taken on the site plan during the session; staff said building-permit submittals are expected soon and that they have been communicating with neighbors who left their contact information at the prior council meeting.
